Chapter 426 The Saint Invites
That night, after Jiang Chen fell asleep, Zhihua got up and left Jiang Chen's room.
However, she didn't know that after she left, Jiang Chen slowly opened his eyes.
"Haha, that's interesting!"
After saying this, Jiang Chen continued to lie on the bed and fell asleep.
On the other side, Zhihua came to the side of a courtyard wall in the mansion.
There is a small hole on the side of the courtyard wall.
Zhihua took out a letter and sneakily sent it out through the small hole.
After doing all this, Zhihua returned to the room.
Looking at the sleeping Jiang Chen, Zhihua's eyes were full of helplessness.
Jiang Chen was really good to her. Not only did he give her freedom on the first day, he also did not treat her as a servant.
But she...
Zhihua shook her head helplessly, then took off her clothes and slowly walked to the bed.
But just after Zhihua lay on the bed, Jiang Chen's arm reached out.
"Hou...Master Hou..."
When Zhihua felt Jiang Chen's arm, she couldn't help but be shocked!
"Well, come here, into my arms."
Jiang Chen ordered in a deep voice.
"Yes~"
Zhihua, who was originally distracted, felt instantly relieved when she heard the voice!
She originally thought that Jiang Chen had discovered that she had gone out.
But now it seems that she was overthinking!
As Zhihua approaches, a battle begins again.
I have to say that Zhihua's abilities have become outstanding after being trained in the brothel over the years!
Jiang Chen felt Zhihua's care and he felt relaxed both physically and mentally!
Omit the evil...
The next morning, the price of grain in Jinling County rose again!
This time, it directly increased to four hundred Wen!
This sky-high price is simply unheard of!
The people were complaining all the time, and some were even about to cause trouble!
……
Fortunately, Jiang Chen's guards were well prepared, so they suppressed the people directly!
However, Jiang Chen's actions made the situation in Jinling County even more difficult!
"My Lord, if this continues, something bad might happen!"
"Once this civil unrest occurs, it will never dissipate easily!"
"This……"
Han Peng looked at Jiang Chen with concern.
When Jiang Chen heard this, he smiled faintly and said, "It's okay, the food from outside will be here soon!"
"this……!?"
Han Peng was shocked when he heard this!
Even if food from other places is about to arrive, then... there is no way the price will drop!
Merchants from other places go to great lengths to transport grain here, they must be doing so to earn a high price!
How could they possibly sell it to Jiang Chen at a low price! ?
Given the current situation, even if Jiang Chen had a million taels of silver, it might not be enough!
And at this moment, a guard walked in!
"My Lord, I received a letter!"
"letter?"
Jiang Chen frowned slightly.
"It was sent by a refugee. I detained him and interrogated him, but he couldn't describe the appearance of the person who asked him to deliver the letter!"
"The other party gave him two kilograms of food, and he came."
The guard told him everything.
"Haha, that's interesting!"
Jiang Chen smiled and reached out to take the letter.
However, after seeing the letter, Jiang Chen's eyes changed!
This letter... was actually written to him by Miss Xuanxuan!
The other party asked him to meet at a restaurant in the city tonight.
"Haha, it looks like the Virgin Mary can't sit still any longer!"
"Um!?"
Han Peng and Xu Meng were stunned when they heard the Marquis' words!
"My Lord, are you saying that this is a letter from the Virgin Mary?"
"My Lord, the Holy Mother Church is too rampant. I will destroy them!"
……
"Haha, don't be nervous, they are not provoking me, they are just asking me to meet."
Jiang Chen saw the angry looks on their faces and laughed helplessly.
"What!? A meeting with you!?"
The two became even more confused, especially Han Peng.
"My Lord, are they planning something?"
"Would you like me to accompany you?"
"No need."
Jiang Chen shook his head and said, "Han Peng, you stay and take care of the army!"
"Just let Xu Meng take the guards and go with me!"
"As long as they are here, I will be fine!"
"This... subordinate obeys your order."
Although Han Peng felt a little disappointed, he still obeyed Jiang Chen's orders.
Compared to Han Peng, Jiang Chen naturally trusts Xu Meng more.
Xu Meng is his die-hard fan.
Although Han Peng also obeyed his orders, but... Han Peng was sent by His Majesty the Emperor after all, so it was still different!
Just after Han Peng and Xu Meng left, Yuan Chunfeng came to find Jiang Chen.
"Mr. Yuan, do you have any instructions?"
Jiang Chen asked respectfully.
Jiang Chen was very respectful to this old immortal!
"Haha, Lord Jiang, I'm here to say goodbye!" Yuan Chunfeng said with a faint smile after seeing Jiang Chen.
"Farewell!?"
Jiang Chen was stunned!
"Mr. Yuan, are you leaving?"
This old immortal is going to leave me?
This is not a good thing!
With this old immortal around, Jiang Chen would feel at ease.
Now that the other party was about to leave, Jiang Chen began to panic.
"My Lord, don't be nervous. I'm just going out for a walk. I'll be back in half a month at most, or five days at least." Yuan Chunfeng saw Jiang Chen's worry and reluctance, and said with a smile.
"Go out for a walk?" Jiang Chen was stunned.
Where is Yuan Chunfeng going?
……
"Okay, Mr. Yuan, then please be careful. Do you want me to send guards to protect you?"
Jiang Chen said with some concern.
The situation in Jiangnan is not stable now. If something happens to this old immortal, he will suffer a great loss!
"Haha, thank you for your kindness, Lord Marquis, but this is not necessary. I think I still have some ways to protect myself!" Yuan Chunfeng smiled, then bowed to Jiang Chen, turned around and left.
"This……"
Jiang Chen looked at Yuan Chunfeng's leaving back, his heart full of doubts.
Where is this old immortal going?
As night fell, Jiang Chen left his residence with more than a dozen guards.
They walked all the way to the agreed restaurant.
Xu Meng escorted Jiang Chen upstairs.
"Haha, Lord Jiang, long time no see~"
Upstairs in the restaurant, Miss Xuanxuan, wearing a white long dress and a white veil, was waiting for Jiang Chen.
However, this Miss Xuanxuan doesn't seem to like wearing shoes.
Those delicate jade feet exposed outside...look so attractive.
After Jiang Chen took a few glances, he felt his heart burning.
"Hehe~ Lord Jiang, I'm the only one upstairs. Do you really need to bring a guard~?" After seeing Xu Meng, Miss Xuanxuan looked at Jiang Chen with a playful expression.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen nodded at Xu Meng.
Xu Meng turned around and went downstairs.
"Hehe, Miss Xuanxuan, or should I call you Saint?"
"You should come to thank me this time, right? "
"After all, you used me to deal with the traitors of your Holy Mother Church!"
Jiang Chen smiled coldly and sat opposite Miss Xuanxuan.
"Haha~ Lord Marquis, you are so smart!"
"I didn't expect you to be able to see all this~"
